Step aside, Worlds Cheapest Laptop, Lanyu of China just undercut you -- and the magical $100 barrier -- with the 666 Yuan ($98) LY-EB01. This marketing marvel might have a processor slower than most netbooks FSB at 266MHz, and its 128MB of RAM might spontaneously combust if you even type the word Vista into it, but it is, technically, a laptop. And you can totally store, like, a few hundred Word files on the 2GB flash drive. Having played around with the previous champ of the cheap n useless weight class, we must at least congratulate Lanyu on a solid looking construction, and hey, apparently theres a chance for a release outside China. Arent you excited?Sunday, August 16, 2009
